The book explores the implications of emerging biotechnologies that manipulate human genetics, addressing objections from various societal figures. It delves into the intersection of genetic enhancement technologies and liberal thought, focusing on public policy issues from legal and political angles. Contrary to the belief that strict regulation is necessary, the author argues that the real challenge lies in the fear these technologies invoke, which threatens the very essence of liberal tolerance and democratic values.
